Title: 6970 power problems?
Post by: heavyb on May 30, 2011, 12:55:30 PM
Hey guys,

I have been running my miner for a week straight with no problems, suddenly out of nowhere I noticed my miner going into a "power save" mode randomly for no reason. When I click on the pclbm.exe file the fan on my 6970 jumps and then it goes into this power save mode and my monitor goes asleep. I can get it to wake up out of this mode then either. I have check all my power options and I turned off any sleep modes based on idle time and I cant figure out why this happens. I also unistalled all my graphics drivers and reinstalled them, but am still having the same problem. My mining has screetched to a halt and I am really frustrated and thinking about just selling all my miners. Any advice would be great!!
